least. shows conclusively that the peo--
pie were right in taking the ground
that "silver money and silver certlh-
Gates were as good money rs they ue-
sired" I think the President was mis-
led on the subject by northern bankers
and this belief was strengthened by
the contents of bis message of Deem
Der, 1885, for that message shows tne
exports Of gold for the previous tlsc goa
wear amounted TO only -, ttIo52
and Of silver 933, 753, 633 whereas,
the imports of gold for the same year
amounted to 500, 691, 696 aud OF

wear notwithstanding silver was beng
coined so freely, the imports OF gold
to the United States were three times
as great as the exports, while the ex-
ports Of silverJrom the United States
we're double the Imports. These fig
ures. added to what was printed IN your
issue of yesterday, go to show that the
people were right in their opposition
to the efforts made by bankers to stop
the coinage of silver.
do not know what the exports and
imports of gold and silver have been
for the last fiscal year, but am salts
fed that the sore predictions made by
the New York bankers have not PANIED

10 the EdifOr Of the UlSDNfch:
The muscles, though not To- be COM
poIed in point Of importance with the
brain In the animal economy, consti-
tute much thc largest pant Of IFS weight
and bulk, and are the chief agents by
which work or labor is performed. IS
they make up so large "a portion Of the
body, and are the active instrumental by
which so many and such varied duties
arr performed, their healthy condition
| is Ct tbc utmost importance.
Tie tendency Of the age, however,
is TO dispense to a large extent with
muscular labor, and TO substitute for it
tine far more powerful and tireless forces
of steam and electricity. Year by year
tLclc is less demand for mere physical
force, and the great work of the woclI
is accomplished more ana more by una
teIial agencies.
Ilo necessary result OF this is tilt "a
large and constantly increasing number
OF persons ere compelled by their yoel-
tons to lead sedentcry and inactive
lives. Their muscles become woah and
relaxed thereby, end the whole system
suffers in consequence
The time maycome, pclchance, when
the future plow-boy, riding upon
steam-plovs and sulky-piows may dnd
Lis muscles so cnergated and his sys-
tenn so enfceblcd as to require some
special prov sion to meet the difficulty.
It is to meet the wants OF this class
OF persons that eYmuasiams have been
established. They offer q useful, AMI
10 many persons an attractive, mode Of
taking exercise. They have the adj
vantage of developing all the muscles
OF tho body. Walking develops mainly
those Of the lower extremity, and Is
only practicable in GOOD weather
Cymnasiums also present the addI-
tional inducement Of social inter curse.
Chceriulross adds much to the value Of
exercise. Solitary exercise is better
than noGc, but Tar inferior to that
which is participated III bya number
Of pefsons.
They have also the advantage Of
being accessible at night, when the du-
ties OF the day are over, and in having
warm aud comfortable rooms in cold
aud inclement weather. NJ. d.

10 the Editor Of the Dispatch:
You doubtless will remember the
sore predictions made not only by
Wall street, but even by President
Cleveland himself in his message to
Congress in December, 1885, astO what
would be the result il the coinage OF
silver as money was not stopped or, to
say the least, decreased? The very
message of the President showed, TO
my mind, the instability of the posi-
ton assumed by him, and my recol-
lection is l called your notice at the
time to the matter. In that mes age
he reported the total exports for the
last fiscal year from the United States
as being 1854, 92l, $50, and the imports
as being SG22, So, 376 So; THIS there
was clear surplus in favor OF the United
States OF Sl6l, 1913, 9O3.2O. Now, rs
that balance Was due in gold | thought
it stIenge at the time that the continued
coinage of silver for a mere fraction
Of that sum could possibly result IN
driving all the gold out of the county,
or even result in its being boarded by
the banks and bankers, any more than
it had been previously done. IA the
message of the President referred to
he used the followed language $50 il
this silver coinage be continued We
may reasonably expect that gold and
its equivalent will abandon the field Of
circulation TO silver alone. This, Of
course, must produce a severe contrac-
ton of our circulating medium instead
OF adding TO it." Has the result been
as the President predicted? Certainly
the folio wing, taken from your issue OF
Sunday last, does not point that way.

beheld their streets dry and the wa
ter retired from the first floor of their
houses They Immediately went to
work clearing out the mud and try
idg to put things in as comfortable
condition as possible. The damage
to floors. paper and plastering will be
very great. The Reynolds brothers
went to work righting up matters in
their canning manufactury, the new
machinery which they put in last
spring having sustained serious in :
jury. Their loss is reported at $1,000.

The ice gorge still maintains it's
position and the belief is that it is
solid to the bottom on which it is
anchored like a huge iceberg. If
the weather continues mild, with lit

sudden rise will bring an avalanch
from up the river down upon the

Mr.. TorherL answers our cores
pondent "H" who qulzzed him on
his pacing the Chesapeake east in
the beautiful landscape view from
the terrace at Woodlands farm, by
explaining: That the portion of
Chesapeake bay referred to as pre-
senting the appearance of q land
locked lake is Furnace Creek, which
by person viewing it from the ter
race of the lawn at Woodlands is
seen to the eastward, or more strictly
speaking south of east"
We think our correspondent III"
who is one of Mr.. Forbert's warm
friends, in order to be little face
tious choose to understand the de
scription as taking in the Chesapeake,
rather than the land-locked sheet of
water at the mouth of Furnace Creek
which supplied the water color Of the
landscape picture, and we had better
give him another trial before sending
him back to his geography class.
